Heard this shit on college radio today. Surf drums meet Darkthrone guitar influence meet strange vocals meet an absolute mess. Dutch band. I can dig it, man.
Aardvark, did you ever get wasted to this one?

I went to the HOG just to buy this CD. At the time it was available only as an import and I think it was $25 or something. That was in 1985 dollars so it was kinda pricey but totally worth it. I must have played it exclusively for the next month on my brother's Discman. It was the yodelling vocals that sold me, and the rest of the songs aren't bad either. It's a really mellow album if you skip past Hocus Pocus, not that you'd ever do that.

Haha I knew it! As soon as I heard it I was like "I bet Aardvark digs this.." That's crazy you had the CD in 1985! I didn't own a CD player until the mid 90s. Will definitely check out the rest of the album soon.
